These little monsters are the reason.
You have seen more pictures of me in my unflattering work out clothes than should be allowed. |
Something about social pressure to live life with a white picket fence!
Something about how kids and a husband aren't things a woman needs to be fulfilled!
But no. Just something about two adorable little boys who worm their way into your soft spot with their sweetness.
Such as when Atticus, age 2, stumbles half asleep to you first thing in the morning and wants a hug.
Or when Harry, age 5, says he'll sit and keep you company while you do your important work, even though he's finished his.
Or when they both drag you into the giant guest bed and snuggle in for the night, teddy bears and all, and say they don't want to sleep in their own beds.
Sigh.
Perhaps it was inevitable that I'd think children and a family would be nice.
Half the town seems to be working on finding me a husband as we speak.
(And while that's certainly an exaggeration) I am now the kind of person who answers inquiries of, "What's up?" with, "Nothing much. Just working," and spends weekends happily babysitting kids and dogs, cooking, and being a general domestic.
Will I be sucked into Vermont? Stay tuned to find out. I certainly am.
